Windows Phone poaches top Samsung executive
Samsungs vice president of consumer and enterprise services, Gavin Kim, will be General Manager of the Windows Phone team. I will be responsible to help set the future direction for the Windows Phone platform and to accelerate Microsofts trajectory to win the hearts and minds of consumers, carriers, device manufacturers, developers and partners, Kim told BGR.
Kim, who was key to the launch of Samsungs much-praised Galaxy SII mobile phone, as well as the Galaxy Tab Tablets, said Windows Phone users were already fervent fans, but that his job would be to spread the message more widely.
BGR described the recruitment as a huge score for Microsoft, timed as the company is working on a second update to Windows Phone, building on the version 7.5 update, codenamed Mango that will be pushed heavily by Nokia.
